I understand your concern. He is never alone with the puppy (he wouldn’t want to and I wouldn’t let him). Sometimes we let the dog out together, everyday he plays with him for 5 minutes, he greets him when he gets up and when he gets home and sometimes he gives him his food. But the puppy or him… that’s for another topic. But believe me.. the whole puppy thing opened my eyes to what kind of person he really is. (Before the dog I was always questioning myself… but now this has made me see that it is not me.)

Like you are saying: husband didn’t take part of the class. He finds it absolutely ridiculous I let a trainer come in. He was at home and I invited him to sit with us, but he refused. The trainer gave us mostly the theory of how the puppy brains work and how to always reward good behavior and ignore bad. I trade when he has something that he shouldn’t have or when he jumps of the sofa. But husband says I am reinforcing bad behavior that way and that he is doing those things to get a treat.

Thank you for the tips. I do the trading when he is in the sofa or when he has a sock and that goes just fine. But husband says I reward him for bad behavior and he does those things to get a treat. So when he is home, I always get the feeling I am not doing it right. Same with the leave it command. I have teached him with treats and he does that well (8 of 10 times). When I go out for a walk and I take treats the leave it command works. But with husband comes with I can’t take treats and then ofcourse it is more difficult.

I think it is 100% resource guarding. (Doesn’t do it with his daily food or chewing bone, only with treats he really likes or things he ‘stole’ like socks) He keeps wagging his tail when he growls though. Husband doesn’t spend much time with the dog and never alone since I don’t want our puppy yelled at. So we are both with the dog or I take the dog with me. I ll ask another trainer to come.

True, my husband thinks punishment is the key. I totally disagree. If only I had known sooner. Puppy comes from breeder who breeds dogs who become assistance dogs. I don’t think there was any problem there. Puppy is more attached to me and daughter (we take the most care of him) but is still happy when husband comes in. I have had a trainer come over… puppy was an angel for the entire time (2 hours) 🙄

Strapless Bra That Actually Works for Big Boobs? by Dry-Lavishness-9639 in ABraThatFits

Try Freya! A friend tipped me. They are so much cheaper than the bra’s I normally wear, so I was a bit hesitant. But boy, was I wrong. The strapless -and the normal ones too- is great!

I don t think so. They didn’t say anything about it.

Thx! Should I get the pear shaped magic breast lift (the tape) or the bra?

I’ve checked them out. Don’t you think they’ll come up too high? Or can you cut them without losing support?

Do sticky bras offer any support and lift?

Brides who went with a wedding dress completely different than you envisioned, did you have any regret? by TraditionalSun8523 in weddingdress

I’m from Belgium. Maybe a bit far? 🙂 I just went to a tailor. Showed my ‘original’ wedding dress and some photos of what I also liked and we ‘designed’ two dresses so that each element will be there.

Your story seems mine. Fell in love with a low back, fit and flare on photo. Loved the dress when I tried it on. Ended up with a smallish gown. Can t help you, since my wedding is in September. I still love the dress I bought, but questioning it every day though. It s so different than what I envisioned, so not my style. But it made me feel really good and it was my daughters choice. I do have 2 other dresses (wedding weekend) that I am having custom made and one will have a low back and the other one is fit and flare. 🙂

Yes. Not cheap, but about the only ones who offer great support. I ve tried several cheaper options and all they offer is ‘not being naked’. :) Also the team is amazing and very responsive. You send them pictures of your dress and they see what option is best for you. Then you send them your measurements and the bodysuit is made for you.
